Abstract Since its prediction in 1974, the measurement of the coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CE υNS) has been a great challenge for many experimentalists. One of the main factors is the small recoil energies of the nucleus produced by this interaction, which is dominant for energies ≾ 50 MeV, for medium target masses. The detection was finally achieved by the COHERENT experiment in 2017 and several other experiments are currently close to performing this measurement for different neutrino energies and sources, thanks to the development of very low threshold and background detectors. Measuring CEυNS opens up new possibilities to test the Standard Model and to look for new physics beyond it. The purpose of this contribution is to provide a brief overview of the state-of-the-art on this subject, with a focus on some of the latest experimental results and future perspectives.

Abstract:
Abstract The discovery of coherent neutrino–nucleus scattering in the COHERENT experiment opened a source of new information for fundamental investigations in the realms of neutrino and nuclear physics, as well as in the realms of searches for new physics beyond the Standard Model. Owing to substantial momentum transfers, a feature peculiar to the kinematical region of this experiment is that the effect of coherence is mixed with a sizable incoherent contribution rather than being seen in a pure form. On one hand, this leads to additional systematic uncertainties in studying the neutrino component of the coherence effect as such. On the other hand, this makes it possible to study a dynamical transition between the coherent and incoherent scattering modes and, in principle, to separate them experimentally. In our opinion, a consistent measurement of the coherent and incoherent cross sections for (anti)neutrino scattering on a nucleus in the same experiment seems a unique possibility, and its implementation would of course provide new data for neutrino physics, as well as for nuclear and new physics. In the present study, it is shown that this possibility is implementable not only in experiments that explore coherent neutrino and antineutrino scattering on various nuclei at accelerators, where the neutrino energy reaches several hundred MeV units but also in reactor experiments, where antineutrino energies do not exceed 10 MeV. The respective estimation is based on the approach that controls qualitatively a ‘‘smooth transition’’ of the cross section for (anti)neutrino–nucleus scattering from a coherent (or elastic) to an incoherent (inelastic) mode. In the former case, the target nucleus remains in the initial quantum state, while, in the latter case, its quantum state changes. Observation of a specific number of photons that have rather high energies and which remove the excitation of the nucleus after its inelastic interaction with (anti)neutrinos is proposed to be used as a signal from such an inelastic process. An upper limit on the number of such photons is obtained in this study.

Abstract:
The process of neutral-current coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering, consistent with the Standard Model (SM) expectation, has been recently measured by the COHERENT experiment at the Spallation Neutron Source. On the basis of the observed signal and our nuclear calculations for the relevant Cs and I isotopes, the extracted constraints on both conventional and exotic neutrino physics are updated. The present study concentrates on various SM extensions involving vector and tensor nonstandard interactions as well as neutrino electromagnetic properties, with an emphasis on the neutrino magnetic moment and the neutrino charge radius. Furthermore, models addressing a light sterile neutrino state are examined, and the corresponding regions excluded by the COHERENT experiment are presented.

Abstract:
Abstract A thorough understanding of neutrino–nucleus scattering physics is crucial for the successful execution of the entire US neutrino physics program. Neutrino–nucleus interaction constitutes one of the biggest systematic uncertainties in neutrino experiments—both at intermediate energies affecting long-baseline deep underground neutrino experiment, as well as at low energies affecting coherent scattering neutrino program—and could well be the difference between achieving or missing discovery level precision. To this end, electron–nucleus scattering experiments provide vital information to test, assess and validate different nuclear models and event generators intended to test, assess and validate different nuclear models and event generators intended to be used in neutrino experiments. Similarly, for the low-energy neutrino program revolving around the coherent elastic neutrino–nucleus scattering (CEvNS) physics at stopped pion sources, such as at ORNL, the main source of uncertainty in the evaluation of the CEvNS cross section is driven by the underlying nuclear structure, embedded in the weak form factor, of the target nucleus. To this end, parity-violating electron scattering (PVES) experiments, utilizing polarized electron beams, provide vital model-independent information in determining weak form factors. This information is vital in achieving a percent level precision needed to disentangle new physics signals from the standard model expected CEvNS rate. In this white paper, we highlight connections between electron- and neutrino–nucleus scattering physics at energies ranging from 10 s of MeV to a few GeV, review the status of ongoing and planned electron scattering experiments, identify gaps, and lay out a path forward that benefits the neutrino community. We also highlight the systemic challenges with respect to the divide between the nuclear and high-energy physics communities and funding that presents additional hurdles in mobilizing these connections to the benefit of neutrino programs.

Abstract:
AbstractThe NUCLEUS experiment aims for the detection of coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering at a nuclear power reactor with gram-scale, ultra-low-threshold cryogenic detectors. This technology leads to a miniaturization of neutrino detectors and allows to probe physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. A 0.5 g NUCLEUS prototype detector, operated above ground in 2017, reached an energy threshold for nuclear recoils of below 20 eV. This sensitivity is achieved with tungsten transition edge sensors which are operating at temperatures of 15 mK and are mainly sensitive to non-thermal phonons. These small recoil energies become accessible for the first time with this technology, which allows collecting large-statistics neutrino event samples with a moderate detector mass. A first-phase cryogenic detector array with a total mass of 10 g enables a 5-sigma observation of coherent scattering within several weeks. We identified a suitable experimental site at the Chooz Nuclear Power Plant and performed muon and neutron background measurements there. The operation of a NUCLEUS cryogenic detector array at such a site requires highly efficient background suppression. NUCLEUS plans to use an innovative technique consisting of separate cryogenic anticoincidence detectors against surface backgrounds and penetrating (gamma, neutron) radiation. We present first results from prototypes of these veto detectors and their operation in coincidence with a NUCLEUS target detector.

Abstract:
The existence of dark matter in the Universe is one of the most fascinating problems that modern physics needs to solve. Nowadays, the most intriguing candidate for dark matter is a so called Weakly Interactive Massive Particle (WIMP), that is a new, yet undiscovered, big-bang relic particle that interacts via gravity and possibly another kind of force. The golden method to observe dark matter is represented by direct searches that aim to spot effects of a possible interaction between a dark matter candidate with the target material of the detector. In this thesis, the 90% confidence level WIMP-nucleon sensitivity curve for DarkSide-20k, a dual-phase liquid argon time projection chamber of 20 tonne active mass to be built at LNGS, has been derived for the first time. This sensitivity curve depends crucially on the background content of the experiment. While DarkSide-20k will be able to keep the instrumental background content to less than 0.1 events for a total exposure of 100 tonne year, so called Coherent Elastic neutrino-Nucleus Scattering (CEnNS), that induces nuclear recoils almost indistinguishable from those potentially induced by WIMPs, will represent a major challenge. The detailed calculation of the expected number of CEnNS in the DarkSide-20k exposure and the study of the spectral distribution of those events has been carried out for the first time in this thesis, demonstrating that this background will be the dominant one for DarkSide-20k, despite the fact that it was neglected until this work. For even large exposures, the sensitivity will be strongly affected by CEnNS background. Thus, it is of utmost importance to find a way to distinguish a neutrino from a WIMP interaction. In this thesis, the potentiality of a directional tonne-scale DM detector located at LNGS has been studied in detail. The results obtained confirm that the development of experimental technologies able to couple directional sensitivity with large fiducial masses (many tonnes) and the ability to collect large exposures free of background from beta/gamma events and neutron-induced nuclear recoils is a priority for future dark matter detectors. Finally, the uncertainty on the CEnNS scattering cross section affects significantly the number of expected background events and it is dominated by the nuclear form factor parametrization. Since neutrinos couples preferentially with neutrons, the lack of knowledge of the neutron distribution and its associated radius plays a fundamental role. In this contest, the first experimental observation made in 2017 by the COHERENT Collaboration of a CEnNS process, provides a valuable occasion to experimentally constrain for the first time the CEnNS phenomenology. In this thesis, the first determination of the average neutron radius of Caesium and Iodine and the difference between the neutron and proton radii, known as the "neutron skin", has been obtained. The radius of the neutron density distribution is a crucial ingredient for understanding the background of future dark matter detectors and also the nuclear matter equation of state, which plays an essential role in understanding several processes, like nuclei in laboratory experiments, heavy ion collisions, the structure and evolution of compact astrophysical objects as neutron stars.

Abstract:
La diffusion cohérente élastique neutrino-noyau est un processus du Modèle Standard de la physique des particules dans lequel un neutrino de faible énergie interagit avec un noyau atomique dans son ensemble via l'échange d'un boson Z, médiateur neutre de l'interaction faible. Cette interaction induit un recul du noyau diffusé à des énergies très faibles, de l'ordre du keV. Une déformation du spectre en énergie de recul serait la signature de physique au-delà du modèle standard, comme par exemple, l'existence d'un nouveau boson d'interaction.L'expérience RICOCHET vise à mesurer avec précision la diffusion cohérente des antineutrinos émis par le réacteur de recherche de l'Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL) avec un ensemble de calorimètres cryogéniques semi-conducteurs et supraconducteurs. L'ensemble des détecteurs est protégé du bruit de fond ambiant par des blindages passifs, comportant plusieurs couches de différents matériaux pour arrêter les rayonnements gammas et neutrons, et un blindage actif, le veto muon, permettant de rejeter les événements induits par les muons. Après plusieurs années de préparation, l'expérience a commencé à prendre ses premières données début 2024 afin de valider le dispositif expérimental.Les travaux de cette thèse ont porté sur trois aspects de l'expérience. Une première partie des travaux a concerné la simulation et l'estimation des bruits de fond de l'expérience, en l'occurrence les bruits de fond d'origine cosmogénique et réactogénique. Dans un premier temps, il a fallu concevoir la géométrie optimale du veto muon permettant de minimiser le bruit de fond cosmogénique tout en limitant le temps mort induit. Une fois la géométrie définie, les taux d'événements cosmogéniques et réactogéniques dans le veto muon et leur répartition spatiale ont pu être prédits et confrontés aux premières mesures sur site. Par ailleurs, les taux d'événements de bruit de fond ont également pu être estimés, avec différents critères de sélection. Ainsi, il a été possible de quantifier l'impact du veto muon sur la réduction du bruit de fond cosmogénique. Au final, les taux d'événements de bruit de fond résiduels et le temps mort induit par le veto muon apparaissent suffisamment faibles pour envisager la détection de la diffusion cohérente des neutrinos.La deuxième partie des travaux a consisté à caractériser le veto muon de l'expérience, notamment pour en vérifier les performances. Pour cela, une série de mesures a été effectuée afin de caractériser individuellement chacun des panneaux scintillateurs composant le veto muon. Ces mesures ont permis de déterminer la réponse des scintillateurs et d'effectuer un étalonnage en énergie, ainsi que de déterminer l'efficacité de détection des muons. Globalement, l'efficacité de tous les panneaux est supérieure à 95%, ce qui est conforme au cahier des charges. Ensuite, la partie supérieure du veto muon a pu être testée sur le site de l'ILL afin, notamment, de mesurer les flux cosmogéniques et réactogéniques. Les taux mesurés ainsi que leur répartition spatiale est en très bon accord avec la simulation, ce qui permet de valider le programme de simulation utilisé.Enfin, la dernière partie des travaux a porté sur l'estimation de la sensibilité de l'expérience à la diffusion cohérente des neutrinos et aux différents canaux de nouvelle physique. Pour cela, une méthode statistique basée sur un ratio de vraisemblance profilé a été développée. Elle utilise les sections efficaces théoriques, les résultats de la simulation ainsi que les performances mesurées ou attendues des détecteurs, pour quantifier la sensibilité en fonction du nombre de jours de données. Il apparaît que RICOCHET peut atteindre une sensibilité de 5 sigmas avec un cycle réacteur de 50 jours. Enfin, pour chacun des canaux de nouvelle physique, la sensibilité après 300 jours d'acquisition a été comparée aux autres expériences démontrant que RICOCHET se place parmi les projets les plus compétitifs
Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering (CENNS) is a process of the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics in which a low-energy neutrino interacts with an atomic nucleus as a whole via the exchange of the weak neutral current mediator, the Z boson. This process induces a keV-scale low energy recoil of the scattered nucleus. A deformation of the recoil energy spectrum could be the signature of new physics, beyond the SM, such as the existence of a new mediator.The RICOCHET experiment aims to mesure the CENNS from reactor antineutrinos produced by the Institut Laue-Langevin with great precision using cryogenic semiconductor and superconducting calorimeters. The detectors are protected from ambient radioactive backgrounds with multi-layered passive shieldings to stop gamma rays and neutrons, and an active muon veto allowing to reject coincidences and muon-induced events. After several years of preparation, the experiment started taking data on-site in early 2024 to validate the experimental setup.The work of this thesis focuses on three aspects of the experiment. A first part of the work is related to the simulation framework and the estimation of the backgrounds of the experiment, more precisely the cosmogenic and reactogenic radioactive backgrounds. First, the design of the geometry of the muon veto was optimized to minimize the cosmogenic background while limiting the induced dead time. Once the geometry was defined, the cosmogenic and reactogenic event rates and their spatial distributions were predicted and compared to the first data taken on-site. Furthermore, the background rates in the detectors were estimated with different selection criteria. Thus, it was possible to quantify the impact of the muon veto on the reduction of the cosmogenic background. Ultimately, the residual background event rates and the dead time induced by the muon veto appeared sufficiently low to allow the measurement of the CENNS process.The second part of the work consisted in the characterization of the muon veto, in particular to verify its performances. A first set of measurements was carried out to characterize individually each scintillating panels of the muon veto system. These measurements allowed to determine the panels' response and calibrate them, as well as determine the muon detection efficiency. Overall, the efficiency of all the panels is greater than 95%, which complies with our specifications. Then, the upper part of the muon veto system was tested at the ILL site to mesure the cosmogenic and reactogenic fluxes. The measured event rates and their spatial distribution are in good agreement with the simulated data, validating our simulation framework.Finally, the last part of this work focused on the estimation of the sensitivity of the experiment to the CENNS process and different new physics scenarios. For this, a statistical method based on a profiled likelihood ratio was developed. It uses the theoretical cross sections, the simulation results as well as the expected performances of the detectors, to quantify the sensitivity as a function of the exposure. It shows that the RICOCHET experiemnt could reach a 5 sigma sensitivity to the CENNS process with a 50-day reactor cycle. Finally, for each of the new physics scenarios, the sensitivity at 300-day exposure with the reactor ON was compared to other experiments demonstrationg the competitiviness of the RICOCHET experiment

Abstract:
The Main Injector Neutrino Oscillation Search (MINOS) is a long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment based at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) in Chicago, Illinois. MINOS measures neutrino interactions in two large iron-scintillator tracking/sampling calorimeters the Near Detector on-site at FNAL and the Far Detector located in the Soudan mine in northern Minnesota. The Near Detector has recorded a large number of neutrino inter actions and this high statistics dataset can be used to make precision measurements of neutrino interaction cross sections. The cross section for charged-current quasi-elastic scattering has been measured by a number of previous experiments and these measurements disagree by up to 30%. A method to select a quasi-elastic enriched sample of neutrino interactions in the MINOS Near Detector is presented and a procedure to fit the kinematic distributions of this sample and extract the quasi-elastic cross section is introduced. The accuracy and robustness of the fitting procedure is studied using mock data and finally results from fits to the MINOS Near Detector data are presented.

Abstract:
One-nucleon halo nuclei are exotic nuclei which can be seen as a core around which orbits a loosely-bound valence nucleon. They are usually studied through reactions such as elastic scattering and breakup. The ratio method has been developed as a tool to study one-neutron halo nuclei at high energies. It consists of the ratio of angular cross sections, breakup and elastic scattering, which removes most of the sensitivity to the reaction mechanism and to the reaction model. In the simple recoil excitation and breakup (REB) model, the ratio simplifies to a form factor dependent solely on the wave function of the projectile. By measuring this observable and comparing it to the REB form factor, i.e. in the ratio method, more detailed information on the structure of the halo could be obtained. For neutron-halo nuclei at high energy, the ratio observable obtained from accurate CDCC and DEA theoretical calculations follows its REB prediction. I study the extension of this method to lower energies of the reaction which could make the measurement appropriate to facilities such as SPIRAL2 (GANIL, Caen, France) and ReA12 at FRIB (Michigan State University) and to proton halos. This is done by comparing the REB form factor to dynamical calculations of the ratio. The reactions investigated are the reaction of 11Be, the archetypical one-neutron halo nucleus, on 12C, 40Ca and 208Pb targets at 20 MeV/nucleon and of 8B, the archetypical one-proton halo nucleus, on 12C, 58Ni and 208Pb targets at44 MeV/nucleon.For these reactions, the adiabatic assumption is no longer valid due to the effect of the Coulomb interaction. This effect is mainly visible at forward angle for 11Be and is aggravated for 8B by the fact that the halo is charged. The ratio works less well than for neutron-halos at intermediate and high energies. Nevertheless, the ratio is shown to be very sensitive to the orbital angular momentum l0 in which the halo is bound and its binding energy E0, i.e. the single-particle structure of the projectile. Variations of l0 and E0 induce visible changes in shape and in magnitude (up to several orders) of the ratio. Also, the agreement of the ratio with its REB prediction is best when the projectile is loosely-bound and for low l0, i.e. for s and p waves. The validity of the method is not affected by the use of energy ranges—or bins— in the projectile continuum. These tend to increase the cross section without changing the agreement of the ratio with its REB prediction. The applicability of the method is finally explored at high energy for proton-rich nuclei 17F, 25Al and 27P. I show that the ratio method works the latter since this nucleus is bound by a mere 0.870 MeV in the s-wave. For the other nuclei, although the agreement of the ratio with its REB prediction is less good than for neutron-halo nuclei at high energy, it still provides estimates of nuclear-structure features, such as l0 and E0 and could be applied in what can be called an approximate application of the ratio method. Heavy nuclei exhibit a neutron skin, i.e. a thin layer around the nucleus where only neutrons are found. The thickness of the skin is highly correlated with the slope of the symmetry energy. The process of coherent neutral-pion photoproduction is used to extract the nuclear density and hence the neutron-skin thickness of heavy nuclei. In order to analyse recent data on the photoproduction on 12C, 40,48Ca, 116, 120, 124Sn and 208Pb, I build a reaction code. My model uses the formalism of Kerman, McManus and Thaler (KMT) which allows to build the photoproduction matrix on a nucleus from the ones describing the elementary process on a single nucleon. Within the impulse approximation, the photoproduction is seen as the coherent sum of the photoproduction on each of the nucleons. In the plane wave impulse approximation (PWIA), no rescattering of the pion is considered after its production and the cross section is directly proportional to the Fourier transform of the density. Such process is taken into account at the distorted wave impulse approximation (DWIA) by considering a potential simulating the pion-nucleus interaction and built from the KMT formalism.The agreement of my model with the data is good, especially for 208Pb. The distortion has a significant impact on the photoproduction process. The sensitivity of the process to the density of the target is analysed by performing the calculations with several different densities calculated in different structure models. The distortion has the effect of deteriorating this sensitivity. In the particular case of a 208Pb target, the impact of variations of the neutron-skin thickness of around 0.1 fm on the photoproduction cross section is ten times smaller than the size of the error bars on the experimental data. These results, although less dramatic, hold for the tin targets, for which preliminary data exists. In the light of these results, the coherent neutral-pion photoproduction process does not seem to be suited in the study of the neutron-skin thickness. This conclusion goes in contrast to the results of recent measurements on 208Pb, for which the method was shown to be sensitive to fine details of the density.
